Of the three you mentioned, Marte most resembles Beltre. Another player he has been compared to is David Wright....

Comparing prospects to current players helps give people an idea of what type of player or potential they have......

Sowers- The most often comparison is Tom Glavine. Same type of mentality and control on the mound (pinpoint control and will work all four corners).....He also has been compared to John Tudor.

Snyder- The best comparison for him is Grady Sizemore. Really the same type of player.....a little bit bigger build and more pop, but maybe just a little less in the high motor department like Grady (Snyder is a gamer though).

Garko- I have no idea who he compares to, nor have any names been attached. I guess a RHed version of Brad Fullmer best describes him.

I would like to thank you guys for this article. Obviously I put most of my time looking at football talent, but my interest in talent evaluation spreads across all sports. As an Indians fan, I admit that I didn't know much about our minors. Sure, I always hear how loaded our system is and that we have one of the best farms in the majors; but I couldn't have put names to any of that. This article allowed me to do so; and got me quite excited about the team's future overall. Thanks again.
